Description

Driving circuit and its operation method
Technical field
Present invention system is related with display device, especially with respect to a kind of driving circuit and its fortune applied in display device Make method.
Background technology
As shown in Figure 1, traditional Organic Light Emitting Diode (Organic Light-EmittingDiode, OLED) driving Device DR interior would generally have memory M (such as SRAM) and be used as frame buffer (Frame buffer).When raw video data DAT0 is after front end source HAP processing, and treated, and image data DAT can be transferred into OLED drivers DR and be connect with a line The mode for a line (Line-by-line) is written into being stored in memory M.When being intended to image data displaying DAT, OLED Driver DR can be read image data DAT in a manner of a line then a line from memory M and be sent to display panel PL again.This When, the gate pole driver GD (such as Gate On Array (GOA) circuit) on display panel PL can sequentially carry out forward direction (by upper Under) scan (Forward scan) action S, cause the image data DAT that OLED drivers DR is transmitted that can be connect with a line The mode for a line is stored in every one-row pixels (Pixel) on display panel PL, uses and display panel PL can normally be shown Show image data DAT.
However, sometimes display panel PL needs the (Up-side that puts upside down up and down for the design in response to system authority Down), if the positive display of script to be maintained at this time, the processing of reversion (V-flip) up and down must just be carried out.For example, scheme 2A is that the display panel PL (being sequentially from top to bottom the first row pixel G1 to nth row of pixels GN) not put upside down up and down originally is shown not Through the image data DAT for inverting processing up and down;Fig. 2 B are that the display panel PL to put upside down up and down (is sequentially from top to bottom Nth row Pixel GN to the first row pixel G1) show the image data DAT without inverting processing up and down;Fig. 2 C are the display put upside down up and down Panel PL (being sequentially from top to bottom nth row of pixels GN to the first row pixel G1) displays are by reversion treated image number up and down The positive display of script can be maintained according to DAT.
In order to achieve the purpose that it is above-mentioned allow image data DAT up and down invert, following several method usually can be used:
(1) as shown in figure 3, after can pass through front end source HAP to original image data DAT the progress up and down processing of reversion OLED driver DR are resent to, and what OLED drivers DR was sent to display panel PL also can be the image data inverted up and down DAT’.However, since such method need to use the front end source HAP of reverse function above and below support image, in practical applications, often It can cause front end source HAP that can not operate in normality image reversing mode up and down because of consistency problem, cause front end Source HAP generates the image data DAT ' to OLED drivers DR inverted up and down in which can not be successfully.
(2) as shown in figure 4, when OLED drivers DR transmission without inverting the image data DAT of processing to display surface up and down During plate PL, gate pole driver GD can be scanned the scan direction that display panel PL is scanned by forward direction originally from top to bottom (Forward scan) change into from down to up reversely scan (Reverse scan), cause the meeting shown by display panel PL It is the image data DAT inverted up and down.However, since such method need to use the gate pole driver of the reversed scanning function of support GD, but display panel PL now because narrow frame (Slim boarder) demand and area is fairly limited, gate is caused to drive Dynamic device GD be only capable of selection forward direction scan or reversely scan and can not both take into account, lack and use upper elasticity.
(3) as shown in Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B, it also can pass through OLED drivers DR and in a reverse direction write image data DAT Memory M and image data DAT is read from memory M, that is, OLED drivers DR reads memory M using opposite direction Image data DAT is taken and writes, cause that OLED drivers DR is sent to display panel PL also can be the image number inverted up and down According to DAT.
However, OLED drivers DR is by image data by the way of a frame then a frame (Frame-by-frame) DAT writes memory M and reads image data DAT from memory M, no matter using Fig. 5 A just writes backward read mode or Fig. 5 B The positive read mode of retrography, as shown in Fig. 6 A to Fig. 6 B and Fig. 7 A to Fig. 7 B, within the same frame cycle (such as second frame cycle T F2), Since the time t2 for the read action R1 that frame data is read from memory M can be write earlier than by current frame data to memory The time t3 of the write activity W2 of M, and write activity W2 write-in direction (from top to bottom, from the first row of memory cells L1 to Y row of memory cells LY) with the read direction of read action R1 (from the bottom to top, from Y row of memory cells LY to the first row Memory cell L1) it is opposite each other so that and the part frame data stored by memory M is likely to not yet driven by OLED Dynamic device DR is covered before reading with regard to the current frame data first by OLED drivers DR write-ins.
When image data DAT is dynamic menu, the above situation will cause occur tear effect in dynamic menu (Tearing effect).Therefore, in the case that such method is usually only applicable to image data DAT as tableaux, cause Its use scope and practicability are seriously limited.

Another specific embodiment according to the present invention is a kind of driving circuit operation method.In this embodiment, driving electricity Road operation method system is operating driving circuit.Driving circuit couples display panel.Driving circuit includes memory.It should in reality In, display panel can be Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) display panel, and memory can be static random access memory Device (Static Random AccessMemory, SRAM), but not limited to this.
It refer to Figure 11, the flow chart of Figure 11 driving circuit operation methods in embodiment therefore.As shown in figure 11, drive Circuit operation method comprises the steps of:
Step S10:Driving circuit receives image data, and wherein image data includes N frame images, and N is positive integer.It is actual On, the image data received by driving circuit can be transmitted again after being handled by front end source original image data To driving circuit, but not limited to this.
Step S12:Within the first segment time (first frame cycle), driving circuit is with first direction by the in image data One frame image is write into memory.
Step S14:In in the second segment time (the second frame cycle), driving circuit is first read with second direction from memory First frame image and export the second frame image in image data is write to memory to display panel, then with second direction In.
It should be noted that the second segment time (the second frame cycle) need to be later than first segment time (first frame cycle) and second party To need to opposite with first direction (such as first direction and second direction be respectively direction from top to bottom and side from the bottom to top To), use first frame image that step S14 is read and step S12 write to memory first frame image that This is inverted up and down.That is, the time that driving circuit reads first frame image from memory need to be than driving circuit by first Frame image writes to one frame cycle of evening time of memory and driving circuit the direction that first frame image is read from memory It is opposite first frame image need to be write into direction to memory with driving circuit.
In addition, in step S14, within the second segment time (the second frame cycle), driving circuit need to be completed first from memory Start to write the second frame image to memory again after middle reading first frame image, and driving circuit by the second frame image write to The read direction that the write-in direction of memory need to read first frame image with driving circuit from memory is identical.That is, The time that driving circuit writes the second frame image to memory need to be later than driving circuit and first frame image is read from memory Time and write-in direction need to be identical with read direction (being second direction).Therefore, when the second frame image is written into storage The first frame image being not yet read in memory can't be override during device, therefore can effectively avoid the generation of tear effect.
Step S16:In the 3rd time (the 3rd frame cycle), driving circuit reads from memory the with first direction Two frame images are simultaneously exported to display panel, wherein the 3rd time is later than the second segment time.That is, driving circuit is from storage The time of the second frame image is read in device to write late frame week time to memory by the second frame image than driving circuit The direction that phase and driving circuit read the second frame image from memory need to write the second frame image to storage with driving circuit The direction of device is opposite.
